If there were a total of 300 raffle tickets sold and you bought 15 tickets, what's the probability that you'll win the raffle?

60% Answer Correctly
14%
1%
5%
15%

Solution

You have 15 out of the total of 300 raffle tickets sold so you have a (\( \frac{15}{300} \)) x 100 = \( \frac{15 \times 100}{300} \) = \( \frac{1500}{300} \) = 5% chance to win the raffle.

Damon loaned Ezra $1,500 at an annual interest rate of 2%. If no payments are made, what is the interest owed on this loan at the end of the first year?

74% Answer Correctly
$30
$84
$33
$16

Solution

The yearly interest charged on this loan is the annual interest rate multiplied by the amount borrowed:

interest = annual interest rate x loan amount

i = (\( \frac{6}{100} \)) x $1,500
i = 0.02 x $1,500
i = $30


3

Find the average of the following numbers: 14, 8, 15, 7.

74% Answer Correctly
13
7
12
11

Solution

To find the average of these 4 numbers add them together then divide by 4:

\( \frac{14 + 8 + 15 + 7}{4} \) = \( \frac{44}{4} \) = 11


4

Solve for \( \frac{5!}{3!} \)

66% Answer Correctly
\( \frac{1}{120} \)
20
\( \frac{1}{72} \)
\( \frac{1}{840} \)

Solution

A factorial is the product of an integer and all the positive integers below it. To solve a fraction featuring factorials, expand the factorials and cancel out like numbers:

\( \frac{5!}{3!} \)
\( \frac{5 \times 4 \times 3 \times 2 \times 1}{3 \times 2 \times 1} \)
\( \frac{5 \times 4}{1} \)
\( 5 \times 4 \)
20


5

What is \( \frac{4}{8} \) ÷ \( \frac{3}{6} \)?

68% Answer Correctly
1
\(\frac{1}{7}\)
3
8

Solution

To divide fractions, invert the second fraction and then multiply:

\( \frac{4}{8} \) ÷ \( \frac{3}{6} \) = \( \frac{4}{8} \) x \( \frac{6}{3} \)

To multiply fractions, multiply the numerators together and then multiply the denominators together:

\( \frac{4}{8} \) x \( \frac{6}{3} \) = \( \frac{4 x 6}{8 x 3} \) = \( \frac{24}{24} \) = 1
